The West Hempstead Union Free School District proudly announces the awarding of tenure to ten exceptional educators who embody our commitment to mastery, identity, and creativity in education.
Leading this distinguished cohort is Principal Joseph Pumo, whose visionary leadership has successfully unified our secondary school into a cohesive 7-12 learning environment, alongside nine exceptional educators: Ms. Kelsey Elias (continuous improvement advocate), Ms. Kaitlyn Hicks (early childhood specialist), Mr. James Killeen (literary analysis expert), Ms. Brittanie Naughton (masterful classroom orchestrator), Ms. Lauren Rogers (compassionate high-standards mentor), Ms. Francine Romeo (theatrical design innovator), Ms. Melissa Rosner (collaborative science champion), Ms. Mariah Tyler (Socratic dialogue facilitator), and Ms. Katherine Wilkens (real-world mathematics instructor)—all of whom embody our district's commitment to transformative, inquiry-based education that values students as capable individuals and teachers as intellectual leaders.
These educators represent the heart of West Hempstead excellence—professionals committed to continuous growth who create classrooms where students develop both skills and purpose. Their tenure marks not an endpoint but a milestone in their ongoing dedication to our educational community, exemplifying RamPride and the values that make our district exceptional. We are fortunate to have them guiding our students' learning journeys. @WHChestnut
